Director's Message

The ICN Business School, formerly the "Institut Commercial de Nancy", was created in 1905, by the University of Nancy and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Meurthe-and-Moselle.

"Today's managers work in a world without borders. In a complex economic environment, artistic creation, design and research & development march to the beat of perpetual change.

In this demanding environment, firms have to be more flexible and agile, managers more adaptable, international, perhaps even mobile. Success is linked to innovation... firms that invent and reinvent solutions to tomorrow's challenges will be the ones that prosper.

The challenge for Business Schools is not simply to keep up with but to pilot the business world towards new patterns of thinking. That is why we maintain openmindedness, commitment and team spirit as the core values of our school. They are values we have instilled in our graduates for over 100 years.

ICN is fortunate to be at the heart and crossroads of Europe, both geographically and academically. Europe is diverse, multicultural and ever-changing. ICN is proud to educate the imaginative leaders that this environment demands."
